I bought MLB TV for watching LAD games this year. I don't quite understand why

I agree. To avoid it I've been using this for many years:

MLB blackouts have nothing to do with attending games (all 5 California teams are blacked out in Hawaii, for example)

I hear you but I still don't understand how it is applied for example in Utah.

I edited the post. The Diamondbacks and Rockies have claimed Utah. You need to get a cable package

You can’t get the AZ cable channels in UT but it’s still blacked out. The CO cable network is available.

The Dbacks situation changed last year though so you can purchase DBacks in-market through MLB

You will still likely be blacked out when the Dodgers play the Rockies though.

Ahh, looks like the Rockies are one of the few teams (with the DBacks) with MLB in market games too
